To secure your reservation:
To secure your reservation, you need to inform Egypt Trip Guides of your request. A company representative will contact you to explain and finalize your request and then send the itinerary for final confirmation. You must confirm all details and pay the entry fee to the Egypt Trip Guides agency by transfer or credit/debit card (Visa or MasterCard).
Changes made by the traveler:
Any changes made to the original booking will be subject to availability. If the full payment has already been made and the voucher is issued, administrative fees will not apply except for airline tickets.
Payment and Booking Policy:
We offer an entry fee of just 20% to guarantee your reservation, including hotel, cabin, domestic flights, and other relevant services. The rest of the amount can be paid up to two days before you arrive at the final destination or in cash upon arrival at your leading tour. Your reservation will be a risk-free investment.
Payment via credit card:
For payments via credit card, according to the regulations of our bank, a document is required to allow the deduction of the amount on your credit card by our finance department, see:
• A signed authorization letter to Egypt Trip Guides, allowing you to withdraw the required amount from your credit card. The signature must match what appears on your credit card and passport.
This document must be sent by email to Egypt Trip Guides or delivered to our representative upon arrival at the airport, otherwise, we will not be able to proceed with your request.
Installment payment via monthly deposit:
Egypt Trip Guides offers a new payment plan to settle the value of your trip, cruises, and other tour packages. Through monthly payments in installments, you can pay the agreed amount up to 6 months before the date of travel. If there is still a balance due, you can make the payment upon arrival at the final destination (by credit/debit card or cash).
Cancellation Policy (Not included for high season):
Cancellation requests must be sent by fax or e-mail to provide the company with written confirmation that your reservation must be canceled.
If you decide to cancel your trip, the following rate table will apply:
From the date of booking up to 61 days before the date of your arrival, 10% of the total tour price will be charged.
Between 60 and 31 days before your arrival date, 25% of the total tour price will be charged.
Between 30 and 15 days before your arrival date, 50% of the total tour price will be charged.
Between 14 and 1 day before your arrival date, 100% of the total tour price will be charged.
Also, airlines charge fees for domestic and international flights subject to the airline’s terms and conditions at the time of booking.
Circumstances of force majeure:
Egypt Trip Guides offers a flexible range of cancellation policies in case the government or airline issues any notice from the country of departure or final destination. If this happens, we will refund the amount paid for the tour package or, in some cases, your payment will be available as a voucher that can be used in any of the destinations in which we operate. You can make use of the voucher on any reservation made within 12 months. Reservations will be adjusted to reflect these travel credits automatically. Only flight cancellation fees will be charged, according to the airline’s cancellation policy, and bank surcharges applied to the deposit amount paid.
Here at Egypt Trip Guides, we prioritize your well-being and safety above all, and for this reason, we have adapted our cancellation policy to reflect our values.

Accommodation / Lodging:
Unless otherwise stated, prices are based on two people sharing a double room. Rooms for individual occupants are available for an additional fee. Hotels are named as an indication of quality and rooms can be booked at other establishments of equal or similar quality. Published prices include tariffs and other costs at the time of publication and are subject to change without notice.
Domestic flights:
We quote the approximate value of flights with approximate times. Flight requests with specific schedules or changes to reservations already made may result in changes to the total package price.
Responsibility:
The Company acts only as an agent for travelers, whether by rail, boat, aircraft, or any other means of transport and does not assume responsibility for injuries, illnesses, damages, losses, accidents, delays, or irregularities towards the individual or property resulting directly or indirectly from any of the following causes: weather, acts of God, events of force majeure, acts of the government or other authorities, wars, civil unrest, labor disputes, riots, thefts, mechanical breakdowns, quarantines or standard acts, delays, cancellations or changes made by any hotel, carrier or restaurant. No liability is accepted for any additional expenses.
Special requests:
If the customer has any special requests, they must inform the agency at the time of booking. The agency and its suppliers will try to satisfy such requests, but as these are not part of the contract, the company will not guarantee the fulfillment of these orders, including for pre-reserved seats. If the agency confirms that a special order has been taken into account or passed on to the supplier or refers to it on the confirmation invoice or elsewhere, this is not a guarantee to fulfill it. The customer will not be specifically notified if a special request cannot be fulfilled. The agency does not accept reservations that are subject to the fulfillment of any special request.
